back at school

Just to update you all who actually read my blog...I have safely made it back to school.  We had an uneventful trip down.  We had lots of fun making jokes at each other and laughing lots.  My favorite quote from the trip was by our dear (as we heard it) Kristen W... "that car reminds me of The Lion King!"  We looked ahead to a new blue-grey car, pointed and said "that one?" to which she agreed.  We had no clue what she was talking about, and so I pointed at a black van and said "well that reminds me of Aladdin.  We laughed and continued to point things out saying "that reminds me of..."  She then talked about how it looked painted.  We were all confused, because don't all cars look painted?  Several hours later, and several jokes later, it was discovered that we had a "minor" mis-communication.  Apparently it was the sunset that reminded her of The Lion King.  Oh my, we all laughed SO hard.  It was an honest mistake on all of our behalves, but it sure made for a funny joke.  We hit some rain coming into West Virginia, but not bad at all.  Thank you so much for those of you who prayed.  I have grown to realize especially with traveling, how so many things could have occurred making it a not safe trip.  We pass so many accidents when being on the road for an entire day, but we were kept safe.  Those prayers were felt and appreciated.

Here is a picture of my sister and I over break.  I already miss her so very much!!  Love ya, Sis!

Several people say/think we look a lot alike (we have been asked many times if we are twins...thank you very much I am four years older then she is), what do you think?  If I look like her, that is quite the compliment to me!
